Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

We have a contractor from the UK working with our group.  He works two weeks in the States and one week back in Britain.  Guess what I did?

That's right, I bought 2 Mathmos Anniversary Lamps from the UK Mathmos website, had them shipped to his office in the UK, and he brought them back in his luggage when he returned to Austin last week!

One for me and one for my dear friend, Libby (aka Marley).  :>)

They are really high quality lamps.  Beautiful packaging, gorgeous bases and caps, perfect glass globes with Mathmos 50th anniversary etching on the back of the glass.  Crystal clear with the most striking red wax that I've ever seen.  Christine has even personally signed a card enclosed with them.  Libby and I are the proud owners of number 285 and 286.  There are only 500 of these beauties, and we got two of them!

Quite simply, these are the finest lava lamps I have ever seen!

LOL, Pete, I am so excited!!   Thank you!   Which color of globe do you like between a yellow/orange/pink or a yellow/green/blue?   You have pics of them in your lovely copper Astro bases.   Which is your favorite?

I only have the yellow/blue green which I prefer of the two new combo's. The other globe you're referring to is yellow/orange Lib.

I *still* prefer the flow of the original (pre-2003) USA wax, but the clear liquid in these bottles is quite the turn on.
